It is concluded that the following are primitive characters: similar wings, the hind wing with a larger anal lobe, all vein systems separate to the base; 7 anal veins, unbranched; cross veins forming an archedictyon.
Lower Cretaceous Homoptera from the Koonwarra Fossil Bed in Australia, with a New Superfamily and Synopsis of Mesozoic Homoptera
- K. Hamilton

- 1 July 1992
Three families of Homoptera, each represented by a single species, are described from Lower Cretaceous mudstone, and the last of these is the most archaic whole specimen of Cicadomorpha and appears to have Triassic relatives.
Making sense of Fulgoroidea (Hemiptera): new phylogenetic evidence
- K. Hamilton
- Biology
- 9 July 2013
It is proposed here that various characteristic wing venation types in Fulgoroidea arose in numerous independent lineages through a few simple genetic modifications that induce or suppress ramification of vein systems during development.
